Notes from Labradors and Friends Dog Rescue Group
Meet Tango — Your New Best Friend!
Looking for a dog who is affectionate, easygoing, friendly, and just plain wonderful? Meet Tango!
Tango is an absolute love bug and professional cuddle buddy, but she also understands personal space — making her the perfect balance of affectionate and independent. She loves everyone she meets: men, women, and kids alike!
She’s dog friendly, cat safe, and chicken safe. She’d love to be friends with the cat, but when the cat says “not today,” Tango politely respects the boundary. Chickens? She notices them and will co-mingle, but surprisingly has no interest in playing with them, despite her otherwise very lab-like personality.
Tango is also incredibly easy to live with and eager to please. She takes verbal correction beautifully, seems to intuitively understand what you want, and is food motivated — making her a fantastic candidate for more advanced training.
She walks nicely on leash, loves car rides, and is equally happy going on an adventure or napping peacefully at your feet. Despite being incredibly loving of her humans, she has zero separation anxiety.
Tango rarely barks, she only speaks up when there’s something worth announcing — a knock at the door or an unfamiliar person in the yard. She’ll love your guests, but she’ll also let you know when someone unexpected arrives!
Her one tiny vice? She occasionally enjoys teaching her foster siblings to keep their school supplies put away — or she’ll nibble a rogue pencil left within reach.
Tango is the whole package: loving, confident, trainable, social, adaptable, and wonderfully easygoing. She doesn’t need a perfect home as she adapts anywhere — she’s pretty irresistible and can’t wait to find her forever home.
If you’re looking for a dog who can be your adventure buddy, your couch companion, your family dog, and your little shadow when you want one — Tango is ready to meet you.
